Professional SMETA Audit UK Consultants
In today’s business landscape, social responsibility and ethical supply chain practices are no longer optional; they are essential. At Connect 4 Compliance, we provide comprehensive SMETA audit support in the UK that meets the stringent requirements of SMETA (Sedex Members’ Ethical Trade Audit). This internationally recognised audit methodology is widely requested by leading UK and European retailers and brand owners, and is valued across the UK, EU, Middle East and Asia. Our experienced SMETA audit consultants guide you through the entire audit process from initial preparation to final corrective action plans, ensuring your organisation is fully aligned with the Sedex Members Ethical Trade Audit (SMETA) framework.
Comprehensive SMETA Audit Support for UK Businesses
Our tailored SMETA audit support services are designed to simplify compliance and strengthen your ethical performance. A SMETA audit is a globally recognised assessment carried out using the Sedex framework. It evaluates a business across four key areas: Labour standards and working conditions, Health and safety, Environmental management, and Business ethics. Whether you are a manufacturer, supplier, or retailer, passing an SMETA audit demonstrates to partners, consumers, and stakeholders that your business operates responsibly and in line with internationally accepted standards.
